Widex Moment

A Hearing aid that doesn’t sound like a hearing aid

Until now, the hearing aid users have been forced to accept that no matter how good hearing aid is, it will always sound like a hearing aid. It is often described as artificial and hearing through the microphone.

Getting used to a hearing aid can be a stressful experience for a first time wearer . Widex Moment has found a way to deliver the most natural and undistorted sound ever offered in a hearing aid. From this “Moment” all other hearing aids will be compared to this one.

Why does a hearing aid sound like a hearing aid?

One of the reason lies in the fact that the sound processed in the hearing aid reaches the ear drum later than the directly transmitted sound that travels through the ear. Hence the sounds arrive out of sync and sound is distorted.

How does Widex Moment work ?

It adapts the ZeroDelay Technology provides an ultrafast signal pathway which to eradicate the problem of delay-based distortion, resulting in clear natural sound. The ultrafast signal pathway reduces the processing delay between microphone and receiver to below 0.5 msec . Then the ZeroDelay engine combines the input from all key components into one pure, seamless sound experience, including the Dual-mic input control which ensures the optimal use of the input from the dual microphone array, the ZeroDelay Accelerator and Amplifier. This part of the process ensures pure and clear sound .

New Receiver Technology

Unlike most receivers, which are made of plastic, the new receivers in the Widex Moment mRIC RD are engineered from stainless steel. This means that they can be manufactured smaller , providing better comfort and durability.

Natural Sound powered by Artificial intelligence

Moment is an artificially intelligent hearing aid that can learn how an individual user wants to hear in the moment and update their sound experience through the SoundSense Learn App.

RECHARGE-ABILITY with discreetness

Although the mRIC model is the market’s smallest rechargeable receiver-in-canal hearing aid, you can rest easy knowing you’ll have all the power you need to hear every moment.

BUILT TO LAST

WIDEX MOMENT™ is designed to reduce the risk of moisture damage with it’s advanced water-resistant nano coating and durable microphones. With no battery door in the rechargeable hearing aid, there are fewer gaps for moisture to sneak into and less corrosion means more durability.

STreaming

The new BT 2.4 GHz-radio chip in Moment not only allow streaming from Apple ios and DEX accessories but is prepared for future connections to Android devices and Widex TV PLAY system.

Oticon OPN S

Oticon Opn S is the newest addition to Oticon hearing aid family.

It is claimed to be the first hearing aid proven to make it easier on the brain, allowing the users to enjoy 30% better speech understanding, reduce listening effort by 20% , remember 20% more of the conversation.

 Hearing loss and hearing aids

We hear not only with our ears but also with our brain. The hearing process starts when the ears pick up sounds. But most of the processing work of the sound takes place in our brain. The brain performs 4 cognitive functions to turn sounds into meaning: orient, separate, focus and recognise.

Hearing loss, disrupts the normal relationship between ears and brain, making the 4 cognitive functions more difficult. This is often presented as a difficulty to follow conversation in noisy situation. In situations such as at the dinner table, where the sound is coming from different directions it becomes increasingly difficult. Traditional hearing aids normally focus on a main speech in front while suppressing all other sounds. Yet background sounds often include important speech details, and when not passed onto the brain, conversations are difficult to follow conversations.

Oticon Opn Tm running on Velox platform, employs an “Open sound” approach to manage multiple speech and noise sources. The OpenSound Navigator TM scans the environment 100 times per second to distinguish between speech and background noise.

While opening to 360-degree sound field to allow the wear to orient the sound source, it continually separates speech and noise, then acts at least 100 times per second to removed excessive noise – even between the words. In this way, the wearer can focus on conversation more easily and hence easier recognition of speech.

Furthermore ,Oticon reports that the Velox platform has the speed needed to manage multiple sound sources, analysing and processing sound 50 times faster than before.

Made for iPhone

Oticon Opn Tm miniRITE is the first Oticon hearing aid to have direct iPhone connectivity. This means hearing aid doubles as a pair of wireless headphones, allowing the wear to stream music and make calls without the need for an intermediary device.

Oticon ON App

Oticon ON App makes it easier for hearing aid wears to have additional control with just a touch of their fingertips. iPhone or the Android smart phone connect directly to the hearing aid via Bluetooth. The app allows the hearing aid wearer to adjust volume levels, switch between programs and more. The app also offers a “find my hearing aid” search feature, counselling device, links to user instructions and low battery notification.
